C’mon Michael Bloomberg, Cook Us Up Some Inspiration!
We don’t need you to wow us. Just give us a little more than being the antidote to crazy.
Missing debates, skipping early primaries… It’s stuff like that that’s got at least a small bunch of people speculating that former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg just wants to make sure Trump loses; doesn’t really expect to win/doesn’t really care if he wins.
Sure. Just like Trump didn’t really want to be President.
Stop it. He wants to win.
We’re sure, yes, Bloomberg will pour an unbelievable amount of dollars into defeating Trump (and helping Democrats hang on to the House and win back the Senate), whomever the candidate may be. But right now, that’s almost beside the point. Because for now at least, his ads which we keep seeing during major sporting events and when we look at stuff on YouTube and well, everywhere!…are very much focused on himself and his personal accomplishments. Not so much on broad policy goals, or direct attacks on President Trump. So sure he wants to beat Trump. Himself. We don’t buy for a sec that he’s not in it to win it.
Which frankly is causing us some confusion. We vote on Super Tuesday, March 3rd, and we’d kind of already settled on a candidate. But if Bloomberg can…
